Just got this unit from Korea today and I have to say I am impressed. I have been an avid user of Arkon mounts and such but this one caught my eye from the Nexus 7 forums. I was curious if the mount would fit a phone AND the tablet with cases on. Low and behold, that is a yes. I paid 30USD shipped and took about 10 business days to get to me (From Korea).
The packaging is really nice, thin but nice. Inside you find the mount ready to go except for maybe the inserts or tabs to insert in the mount depending on your dash to adjust/correct the height.
The suction cup is comprised of the sticky pad stuff that you see on the Xenogear mounts where you can use a wet towel to re-institute the sticky suction cup if it gotten too dirty.
The GREAT thing is that this mount is way smaller than any of the other "off dash" mounts that I have seen. I prefer this because if you use the mount with a N7, then your vision is not impaired because the tablet it not on the said dash, rather off the dash, maybe hanging is a better term to use lol.
Another awesome aspect of this mount. It can be used with both my Nexus 4 phone with or without a tpu case on. However, you have to place the phone in vertically. Which isn't horrible, I am use to mounts with side clamps of some sort. Just something to get used to.
Anywhoo...here's some pics with both the N7 and N4. I recommend this if you are looking for a smaller footprint of a mount! I'll report back on usage in a couple of days.

LOL you can't. I guess you can try to put an qi charger in there :laugh:
That would be very cool. Low profile and wireless charging.
Just reporting back after a day of usage.
The adhesive sticks like a sonovagun! LOL On the mounting disk, it's not going anywhere! I assume that the more smoother your dash is, the greater the adhesion.
I also played with the mount and made a few adjustments to lower the bracket as much as possible. To do this, you need to have the expandable claw facing down and then loosen the backing of it to slide it down all the way. In addition, I learned that the mount can telescope OUT if needed. To lock into place, you just have to flip the back switch, which I believed to be the suction cup lever, but it's more of a locking mechanism. Great mount!
Just a fyi, the instructions are in Korean, so no go there lol. But there are pics to get the idea of what is instructed.

i was looking at this mount for my nexus 7 too but was unsure about the tape. Thats good to hear that its sticking well, hopefully the tape will still hold strong when it's been there a while and on those hot texan days.

Nah it cant be done. You can try to drill a small hole in the mount but I don't think I'll be doing that. I don't want to risk damaging the jaws. And the jaws are too wide to fit the N4 to open up the charging port.

I'll report back if anything changes. But this thing sticks! That's actually a 'con' lol, because there is no tab to help pull off the mount like the Kropsson Aero or Arkon mounts I have. You have to dig your fingers right under the ring and pull and pull HARD lol. Sound dirty don't it?

I've only found it on ebay. The key model number to look for is the NX2000 but I think the NX3000 works as well. They expand to the same but the NX3000 is made for thicker devices. I cannot confirm this, just looking the pics in the catalog I was given, in English! LOL.

I don't trust windshield mounts and this works pretty well in my car.

check out this one. i have the one that suctions to window and its cheap and works great. of course, no bluetooth or google goodies, but that thing will never come out.
http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page.asp?skuno=86724
Got tired of waiting myself and ordered this a week or so ago. It was on my desk when I got home from work today finally. For its price and origin, it holds up pretty well, well at least the few hours I've tried it so far.
The suction cup had a plastic protective film, I removed the film, licked the cup and fastened it to the window. I gave it a few hard tugs and its on there pretty good. I look forward to seeing how it handles the Sun here in Phoenix.
Another good thing I like about it is, it is sturdy where its at. My universal dock for my G1 was flimsy and would move when I pushed the screen. This doesn't budge. Also the phone is securely locked in.
Only issues I'm having so far is I'm not used to using my index finger on the screen and I'm having issues but that's not related to the holder.

i Have that exact one, it is alright, except you can't rotate it at all, so the phone sits at an angle, and it scratched some of the teflon off the bottom of the phone. Maybe get some high grain sandpaper and make it a bit less sharp on the bottom left edge where it hold your phone.

Scratches from it? Does your N1 have a skin?
As promised...
I got the padded tilt/swivel mount. It's very nice, it has a felt type texture to it. It is very soft and will definitely never harm my precious Nexus One. It is very sturdy, and holds the phone securely. I can drive like a maniac and this puppy isn't budging one inch! It is in the perfect "navigation position" for my car. I couldn't be happier
Like I said, it was pricey, but the quality of the mount is well worth it. I've had those cheapy universal style mounts in the past and they're always pieces of ****. It's nice to have a NICE mount for my nice phone

Yup, the bottom is completely open to plug in a car charger. They make a mount with the charger built in too, but it adds on to the already expensive mount, and I already have a car charger, and they don't have a padded version, so I opted for this one

If you tilt the phone to landscape orientation, does it slide out of the mount?
It appears that it is a drop in mount, so I am worried that if it is landscape and I take a turn sharply, that sucker will fly out of there.
I have the version which has the built-in charger, not padded; I use it in landscape 90% of the time (and switching is trivial). The phone is held quite securely.
Mileage may vary on the padded version.
I guess I'm the opposite. I prefer my navigation to be in portrait mode. It allows you to see more of the upcoming roadway in front of you.
But I can tilt it to landscape and it'd be held in just fine as long as I didn't tilt it too far.
Re: n1 car dock? NEED A LINK...
can one of you guys, post a or the link from a online store were we can buy this kinds of accessories? a trusted one of course. and not tmobile, because i think only users from that operator, can buy in the omline store. At least you need to provide a tmobile phone number for the registration (i'm in Portugal, so i don't have one). I'm especially interested in the car dock in this post. best regards!

I'm looking for a sturdy Nexus One dock.
The stock htc car dock is too expensive for me, and kinda short. Besides, my headunit works as a BT, so I don't need speakerphone or the BT in the car dock.
The main point is for it to be not flimsy and, hopefully, fully cover the N1's back from the sun.
I did read the thread with ebay car dock, but people are saying it's bending on the sun and is unreliable.
Any advice is welcome =)

I've been using this one for almost 2 months now.
I'm in Phoenix and it holds up just fine under the sun. The suction cup is pretty secure. Only issue is it doesn't rotate unless you loosen the knobs.
I park in a garage during the day but at work my car is under the sun and when I go home, it's fine.

Is that a spring loaded clamp on the right hand side?
No, its just flexible plastic. That thing behind is to adjust the angle of the holder.
I used this one for a few months, it scratched some teflon off the bottom of my n1. The bottom holder part, below the back button, is quite sharp plastic.
Pro Clip mounts are the only way to go.
They may be pricey, but they don't looks like ass in your car.

but when you're driving a f.o.r.d..... well, you know ;-)
does that mount tend to heat up/freeze the phone when the hvac controls are set to maximum ?
i'm using a target blue light special. don't have the box, but it's got an arm about 8" long, rotates 180*, and is very secure both the cup mount and the phone. cool thing is you aren't locked into one phone or another. it has ratcheting arms that clamp the phone gently with foam pads.
i do like the low profile look of your mount in the mustang though. almost hides the phone completely from prying eyes.

I shut off the vent behind the mount when it's on heat. For AC I usually leave the vent open since it's usually summer and the phone sitting in the sun can get pretty hot.
I definitely close off the vent when the heat is on though, and with the vent closed, it stays a normal temperature.

Would that proclip hold the phone with an extended battery? It looks like there is space behind.

ANY case will make make it hard to mount. the there is NO tolerance for any type of case. If you have a case you may want to look at the universal one that clamp the sides.
This dock works fine with the Trident Kraken on my phone. The Kraken and the Otterbox Defender are probably the two thickest cases on the market so if you want one which works with any case get it:

with this mount, you cant fit a case on it. If you take a look with the phone installed there is no way a case can fit in it. You may have a slightly different model of it
The lower arms are adjustable. This allows them to extend far enough for the lip to sit in front of the phone with the Kraken case on it. The top arm has plenty of length to clamp the phone in the Kraken case.
I've been driving with the phone in it's Kraken case secured in this window mount for the past week. I realize it's more expensive than the $8.00 mount on ebay but I think if you can afford this phone and need a windshield mount you can probably spend a few extra $$ for a better mount.

your mount is adjustable. the one that i posted is not. just depends on each persons need. Not sure if yours does but this one has a cutout for flash and camera if you want to take a video while drive. A important feature for me.

Dont know if you have the convertible or not but.....
i picked this one up. going to attach it to my headliner (top left corner) instead of the visor. trying to figure out how to run a power cable up to it if i like it there.
I just get one of those sticky sunglasses rubber thingys, cut it a bit and placed it on my steering wheel base near the dash. And cut a little piece for between the speedometer and tach. Phone mounts nicely there, like having a built in GPS that can be seen right next to the speedometer. When the phone isn't mounted, it cannot be seen at all.

I'm currently using a car mount that you stick in your air vent, and then it's a magnet for you phone. Works really well, even with the note 4, for how heavy it is.

If you have a really heavy case, though, it might not work AS WELL, but it works pretty well.

I can't say that that is a universally true statement. There are some REALLY nice car mounts out there that are NOT iottie. I personally think that iotties are a little overpriced for what they are. There are equally good car mounts out there for a lot less of a price.

There is no equal when it comes to staying put on an uneven rough surface in -25c Canadian weather. Over priced yes but I'll take the peace of mind knowing my Note won't be lying on
the floor when I get back to my car or fall off while I'm driving.
3M double sided outdoor mounting tape does a better job in -40C canadian winters. and it costs a few cents.
I have used many different car mounts of all different costs, but this one is by far the best and not even the most expensive!

I always use a Dashmount bracket specific to the vehicle and a Brodit active cradle specific to the handset. Usually takes Brodit a little while after a new phone has been released to make a new cradle.
Yeah, I'm looking for one as well. The previous universal one I had is too small for the 6P. It will just precisely fit for my Xperia Z.

I've got this one, one of the best mounts I've ever found, super sticky gel suctioncup that stays in place forever, hot ass NM summers, cold winters, stays there.
Already know it fits because I put the verus case in it, fits perfectly. Automatic too, you push your phone in and the arms snap shut. Push the two toggles and the phone comes off.
Don't know anything about them, but I saw a bunch of SlipGrip mounts when I was looking around on eBay:

I have this for my Galaxy S6 Edge (The S6 attaches to it without a magnet but it comes with one).
I loved it. I hate those suction ones that go on the windshield.

Unfortunately,
I'm not going to use it with my 6P as I don't think it has magnets to hold it up and I don't want to use the strip as I want to show off that Nexus logo.
Alas, I'm giving it to my girlfriend.
I highly recommend a CD one like the one I linked though, it's nice and sleek!
I've been using this for a little over a year now and happy with it

Hey!
Do you mind taking a picture of that in your car or something?
I want to see how bulky it is / looks.
Happy to oblige

Oops, didn't quote you but I posted a picture of it in my car.
Check out ram mounts. They have a great selection that fits all types of vehicles.
Here's mine which is custom mounted for my MINI.

That mount setup looks terrific! How does the Ram mount connect to that custom arm. I believe the ram mount has a ball joint on the back, and I'm curious as to how you did yours up.
Pro Clips are well worth the money. 6p will be the 3rd phone that will go in mine. Still good as new.

Giving this one another recommendation. Have it in my Subaru for almost two years now.
It's very solid and sturdy.

Thanks! You're correct. My friend cut the ball off and drilled a hole through. Fits great!
Ram mounts came out recently with a modified version, similar to what we did but it also comes with a screw /nut set.

I use the same one and love it! Great for when I'm using GPS.
Kenu Airframe is pretty good.
I'm using it couple of years.
